individualized education
Custom student curriculum
Individualized education is instruction tailored to a specific student's needs, abilities, and learning style rather than following a standardized curriculum.
In American schools, students with disabilities receive an Individualized Education Program (IEP)—a legal document specifying accommodations and goals: The IEP guarantees her extra time on tests.
More broadly, any teaching adapted to one learner qualifies.
